Homework Statement
For the Beam and loading shown, (a) draw the shear and bending-moment diagrams, (b) determine the maximum absolute values of the shear and bending moment.
Beam ACDB (left to right) has a downward Force of 24 kN acting at A and a linear distributed downward force of 8 kN/m acting from C to D. There is a roller connection at C and a fulcrum connection at B. The separation distance between AC = CD = DB = 3m.
Homework Equations
ƩF=0 and ƩM=0
The Attempt at a Solution
Initially, I started off the problem by finding the values of the reaction force considering the entire system as the FBD. Then, by sectioning the beam, I began to find the internal shear force and bending moments through out the beam itself. I have attached a picture of the work that I have done so far, if anyone can assist me in aiming that my work is correct I would be very grateful.
